Check Printing out of Sequential Order

[Former Member]

We have recently switched from the RFFOUS_C to the SAPFPAYM (Payment Medium Workbench). When we made this switch our check numbers started to print out of sequence. An example I have 20 checks numbered 1-20. When I pull them off the printer I may have check 20 first then check 2 then check 5. Prior to payment medium workbench when I would look in the check register the check numbers were assigned in alphabetical order and that is how they would print.

What I am wondering is there a transaction code that controls in what order checks will print?

Thank you,

Hi,

I think you have to make certain settings on the advanced tab of the Properties for the printer on which you print checks.

Start > Printers and Faxes > highlight the printer you are using > File > Properties >

Advanced Tab tick -

Spool print documents so program finishes printing faster

Start printing after last page is spooled

Print spooled documents first

Enable advanced printing features

Hope this will help

My printer settings are set up like.

One thing that I notice that may help when I look at the check register for the payment run prior to payment medium workbench check numbers were assigned alphabetically.

When I look at the check register for a payment run now I do not see any logic to how it has assigned the check numbers.

Where can you find or setup the logic for setting up check numbers?

The checks are printing in payment document order.

Is this standard configuration for Payment medium workbench "Check" format?

Is this something that will need to be customized to make them print in check number order?

Thank you

hi Marcus,

I am facing the same issue. Did you get any solution for your issue. I uderstood that the checks are issued as per the vendor number sequence.

Thanks

Hi Marcus,

Check the sort Variant assigned to your payment method.

FBZP > Payment Method in Co Code > Sorting of the > correspondence

This would determine the order of check number assignment /printing
